He then goes into Rosanna's room and tells her he's sorry that he has always been too late --- too late to save Cabot, too late to realize that James made Rosanna break up with him, too late to believe Rosanna when she tried to tell him the truth, and too late to respond to her recent declaration of love. He promises never to be too late again, and never to be too good --- he will fight fire with fire and knock aside anyone who gets in the way of him protecting Rosanna or her baby.
